Positive reporting like this will soon land you on the street at SPIEGEL ONLINE Frau Sperber:

Marc Pitzke hasn't made a career as Amerika-Korrespondent by being Mr. Niceguy or respecting the truth. How about you just stick to guns, fast food, racism, NSA and obesity next time? You just need to take your cute little camera phone to a gun show or a KKK meeting to get the footage we really want for SPIEGEL readers. There are plenty of worthy topics to report on when it comes to the USA without upsetting Mr. Augstein with this excessive exposure to reality.
